Loveis not a choice. Commitment is a choice. Loyalty is a choice. Perseverance is a choice. Acting in a loving way is a choice.
Love is an emotion.
All human beings make choices based on emotion. This has been shown by examining patients with head injuries or other forms of brain damage who are acting only from the logic centres of their brains. They are paralyzed. They can't make the simplest decisions because the countless choices we make every day very often don't have any logical difference.

That's an oldish study, but there have been others since. There was a good podcast, I think on This American Life about it.
